Just your reminder that a—arguably *the*— pivotal character is DUNE is Liet Kynes, the planetary ecologist.
He is one of the main engines behind all that happens.

To me, there is a sort of grizzled old man wisdom at the very core of Kynes' vision.
It seems to me a strange choice of character to gender swap. But every adaptation is a new story, Villeneuve is a genius and Sharon Duncan-Brewster may do something new & amazing with the role.

Re: Denis Villeneuve, I think Blade Runner 2049 will eventually be seen as the most unfairly obscure science fiction film of the last decade, and perhaps the best.
